1 Corinthians 13:8 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.
Prophecy not “prophesy” shall fail. The bible says “they shall fail”- pass away or done away which the foretelling of future events has been inoperative of today.
Prophesy, is the forth- telling part, that will edify the church. To prophesy means to preach the word also used in Revelation 10:11. The first usage in English was in 1587 by the writing of Thomas Thomas in his Dictionarium Latinae and Anglicanae being reference to “a thing foretold” and A Christian Dictionary by Thomas Wilson in 1612 refers to “testify”. It was only in 1676 and onward to mean “foretell.”
Revelation 10:11 And he said unto me, Thou must prophesy again before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings.
“…whether there be tongues, they shall cease…” The gift of tongue shall cease. They come to an end when the perfect is come. My reference Bibliotheca Scholastica in 1589 means “to leave off” or “discontinue” as in the Dictionary of the French and English Tongue. The Bible says the gift of tongue will passed the scene.
Now, the phrase,” …whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away”, Knowledge here means art, skill or science. It refers to the skill how to do things well and definitely this is reference to clear method of study of God’s word. This technical know-how accordingly shall vanish, to perish, to come to nothing and much were void of understanding even during the time of Paul and Peter or during the apostolic times whereas some bent towards wresting of the scriptures or corrupting the scriptures.
2 Peter 3:16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.
2 Corinthians 2:17 For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.
Proverbs 7:7 And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding,
Let it be established, whether prophecy, tongues, and even knowledge shall be done away, stopped, and cease as per what the Bible says...
